a thursday night ride without eastside representation is like mashed potatoes without gravy. sure, you can do it that way, but that shit just ain't right.

You and Scottie are awesome. It's just that we can only take so much eastside goodness.

Well, looks like the "neys" have been louder than the "yeas". I'll be out tonight rockin the Redline and a sore knee after taking a spill this morning on the way in. I must say I love the southerly winds as of late ( last night I set a PR coming home 18 miles in 54 minutes)
Here's my picture, serious this came up when I googled "8.75" How perfect.

I would like very much to gou on a ride tonight. However, I have a broken chain and will in all likelyhood not have time to make it to a shop to get a new one, home to get the bike and then make it to Westlake in time.
Anyone want to help a brother out?
When I broke it I went from Madison to Eastlake all flintsy-style, stoking like a skateboarder with one leg. I got some funny looks from pestrians but still made it across town doing roughly 15mph.

I can help. I have a chain tool and I'm not afraid to use it.
Where will you be this afternoon/evening? I'm riding home around 5:00, then driving downtown around 6:00, then I'll be at WLC at 7:00.

pick up a cheapo chain that will fit on my bike, so that when the gang meets up at the CIP or where ever, I can meet y'all and do a quick install so that the lead-sled is ridable

you got it. what kind of chain do you need? I'll probably just stop at recycled on my way over to CIP.

No idea. I don't have the bike at work with me so I can't give you exact dimensions, but it has two cogs in the front and 8 in the back. I can't imagine there being a huge variety, but a cheap one is preferrable. The new wheel and shoes effectivley destroyed my budget until payday.

you just need any ole 8 speed chain.
you could get a new one, but judging by the fact that it was worn to the point of breaking you'll need to replace the cassette as well.
however, i have just what you need. an ole worn chain that you can ride till you get a new one.
i'll bring it tonight. you can pay me in man love.

I suspect that the new cassette I got with with the new wheel accelerated the death of the old chain. I'll rock whatever comes my way, many thanks.
